Colorado: Photo Tour
Tour Summary:
Imagine a football sized bird, strutting across the prairie with bright orange air sacs inflated, modified neck feathers sticking up like rabbit ears, tail cocked and fanned, while emitting an otherworldly booming noise. Now imagine that same bird only thirty feet in front of your camera lens, lit by the soft glow of the sunrise. If it sounds like bird photography nirvana, that’s because it is! Colorado is THE place to experience these “chickens” in the midst of their surreal displays, and this tour visits leks of four different species. There’s more to photography in Colorado than chickens, though, and everything from sweeping mountain vistas to bighorn sheep and pronghorn to colorful finches in the snow make this one of the meccas for photography in the United States.
